Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE Gets New Release Date from Warner Bros

Denis Villeneuve’s Dune was set to premiere on the Friday before Thanksgiving, November 20, 2020. It’s a prime holiday spot. However, Warner Bros just announced that they are pushing the film back one month to December 18, 2020. Which is, in truth, is another prime holiday spot. It will be released in IMAX and 3D. Warner Bros will still use their November 20th spot for another film. They have not announced which one.

Based on the science fiction classic by Frank Herbert, Dune is a mythic and emotionally charged hero’s journey, and tells the story of Paul Atreides, a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, who must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet’s exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence—a commodity capable of unlocking humanity’s greatest potential—only those who can conquer their fear will survive.
